The Playground Workout

Participating in some of your favorite childhood activities is a great way to tone-up your body and kick up your calorie burn. Thirty minutes of tossing a Frisbee blasts 96 calories, having a catch torches 162 calories, and playing tag crushes 256 calories. Sounds fun! This weekend, hit the local park with your friends or family and work up a good sweat. Then head over to the playground and get silly on the swings with today's head to toe toner!

The Move: Swing-Ups!

You’ll Need: a swing

How To Do It:

Start in a plank position, toes up on center on swing, wrists in line with shoulders.

Slower lower chest down to ground, pulling belly button into spine, keeping a straight line from head to feet. Return to start. Repeat for 1-3 sets of 10-12 reps. (Make It Easier: Remain in plank position and hold for about 30 seconds, rest, repeat!)
